    Where is this guy?

    I know he recently beat down his mandatory Marco Huck, but he said he wanted to fight again by April/May...he doesn't even have a fight scheduled yet and it is April 3rd.

    HBO and SHOW have both expressed interest recently, is King simply keeping him on the shelf again?

    He's at home pretending he wants to fight Haye knowing the fight will never happen.

    He's been saying he wanted the winner of the Haye/Macca fight since January. Let's not go around making up **** to suit our own agenda.

    :lol:

    To be honest, Cunningham is the only Cruiserweight I give a real shot vs Haye.

    He would definitely beat Macca and JMM.

    Maybe Bell would have a shot vs Haye, he's a rather unpredictable fighter.

    And?

    It's been well known for ages that this was Haye's last fight at the weight, it was never going to happen.

    Empty words from USS, nobody fell for it though.

    Ok, tell me what he was supposed to do? The guy wants to be the best. Was he supposed to not at least attempt to fight the winner? Haye said he was going to leave the division after he fought Mormeck. We all saw what happened there. Mayweather said he was retiring after he fought DLH. That didn't stop Hatton from calling him out. You can't take everyone at their word. Cunningham called out Haye the first chance he got. Once again, let's not make up **** when you don't know what you're talking about.

    He's probably just waiting for the winner of the Adamek-Bell fight. The winner is supposed to be his IBF mandatory. The fight is scheduled for April 19th. So I'm guessing he won't fight until late July, early August against Bell or Adamek.

    If USS can become British and give Haye the pay day of his life (Like Enzo was and did) then he has a chance.

    Unless he can't (He can't) then he should just be quiet as he's speaking empty words. Everybody knew that Haye wasn't going to fight again.

    I wouldn't have minded if he's sounded Haye out, but he's gone on about it and even accused Haye of ducking him. :rofl That's nothing but bull**** and trying to pull the wool over peoples eyes.

    USS isn't on Haye's level, USS should get on with his life and prove himself to be the man in the current division.

    Yes, shame on Cunningham for calling out the World Champion of his division. I mean, what is he thinking?

    Cunningham-Haye would be a great fight, damn shame it will probably never happen though.

    You're doing nothing but displaying your ignorance again. You continue to make **** up left and right. Cunningham stated in an interview that he knows what Haye is doing is a good business move and he doesn't blame Haye for doing it.

    USS...

    "If that's what it takes for him to come out from hiding, we'll fight him in England. How many times has he fought abroad? One time against old man Mormeck."

    Come out of hiding? :rofl That's accusing Haye of ducking him. Who's ignorant now?

    Haye would beat Cunningham if they fought.....Cunningham said in that same interview that his resume is better than Haye's and Maccarinelli's put together...which isn't true......I mean everyone knows why Cunningham wants to fight Haye....but i think now the belts are up for grabs he will probably be the best Cruiser out there....he's had the balls to fight abroad and win so he deserves respect but Haye is a knockout artist and would beat Cunningham up.......

    That's your inaccurate interpretation. He's clearly using the term "coming out of hiding" to illustrate the fact that he rarely leaves his backyard.
